Considering the Switch 2 (with those pretty joystick well covers to protect from drift, omg) and the Ryzen Z2 Go announcements, the low cost and availability of Steam Deck & parity level APU machines for purchase now, and the giant 1080p gaming install base represented by current gen consoles, it sure seems like low spec & 1080p gaming is going to have a pretty sunny future. I am hoping this gives small and medium sized development teams a chance to show up what is left of AAA gaming.
What are your favorite low spec gaming setups right now? I’m enjoying a 5700g APU system the most these days. Mainstream wise, I’ve been playing Elden Ring and Injustice 2 and Vampire Survivors. The last Indie I played is this beat-em-up / horde survival game An American Werewolf in LA which was pretty cool.
I like that too. I don’t like the limited inventory space for gear though, which means I keep having to go sell stuff if I don’t want to destroy things. I should be able to just sell it any time with an owl or something, doing a bunch of collectibles to get more space doesn’t feel great.
That’s a pretty small nitpick because money is rarely an issue. It just feels bad to destroy stuff to open a chest.
